UFC comes back to Sao Paulo, Brazil with a light heavyweight showdown in the main event between Jan Blachowicz and Brazil’s own, Ronaldo ‘Jacare’ Souza. Blachowicz put the light heavyweight on notice with the dominant win against former UFC and Strikeforce champion, Luke Rockhold and he will be expecting a similar outcome against UFC veteran Jacare Souza in the main event of UFC Sao Paulo.
On the other hand, Jacare Souza will be looking for a fresh start in the light heavyweight division. Souza has had some huge wins in the middleweight division, but he has also suffered losses that have kept him away from the UFC title. After the unsuccessful move to light heavyweight by Chris Weidman and Luke Rockhold, it would be interesting to see how does Jacare Souza looks against the Polish fighter, Jan Blachowicz.
